Moving SSL Certificate/Keys from old F5 viprion pair to new F5 viprion pair

We are in process of doing a migration from on F5 viprion pair to a new hardware. Is it possible to move all the certificate/keys from the old hardware to the new one. If yes, please share the tmsh commands to move these files

 

  • You can achieve via f5 GUI, its very easy. Find the GUI steps.

    BIG-IP 12.1.2 and earlier:

    -->System > File Management> SSL certificates > Select all Cert >Archive > write File name > download it.
    

    BIG-IP 13.0.0 and later

    System > Certificate Management > Traffic Certificate Management > SSL Certificate List > >Archive > write File name > download it.
    

    CLI Steps

    --> Go to F5 cert & key folder and zip entire cert & key, then scp to other f5/unix machine.

    Example:

                zip -r myfiles.zip mydir
